I would like to see more peoples perspectives to try and achieve a middle ground with whether the mod should be kept or not.

    Or they could just decline to host something they think is dumb trash. Surely, you can just download the mod fucking somewhere else if you want it?

      While it’s true the platform has the right to refuse hosting certain content, the point at issue is whether that decision should be made on subjective opinions like ‘dumb trash,’ or if a more balanced approach should be taken. We’re discussing the principles of platform moderation, not just the convenience of downloading a mod elsewhere.

        “It’s about ethics in game journalism” is not the argument you think it is. No amount of hate should be tolerated if you want an inclusive community.

        Suggesting people discuss it elsewhere is also a terrible ask. You posted this in Beehaw. Asking people to go to an external forum means you don’t want follow the rules of this forum. Your “Why can’t we all just get along rhetoric” is tired.

        The issue should be less of platform moderation and more one of why the fuck is a civilised society allowing a platform that promotes hate to exist?
